1 Timothy 1:3-7

21st Century King James Version

³ As I besought thee when I went into Macedonia to abide still at Ephesus, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

⁴ neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which promote questions rather than godly edifying in the faith, so do!

⁵ Now the aim of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, with a good conscience and with faith unfeigned,

⁶ from which some have swerved and have turned aside unto vain jangling,

⁷ desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor whereof they affirm.
